My name was legally changed in Delhi in 1982. Does my birth certificate from 1960 need to be updated to reflect my new name?
No worries about updating your 1960 Delhi birth certificate to reflect your legal name change in 1982. Your birth certificate primarily shows your birth details like date, location, and parents' names. It's a record of when you came into the world! The legal document reflecting your 1982 name change in Delhi is the main record for your new name.
In some rare cases, having both documents might be helpful. Some institutions might request both your birth certificate and your name change document. But if having your birth certificate reflect your new name would be easier for you, that's totally an option!
Here's what to do:
Check with the specific agency or institution if they require your birth certificate to reflect your new name.
If updating your birth certificate is necessary or preferred, contact the Delhi authorities responsible for birth certificates to inquire about the process.
Remember, your legal name change document is the most important record for your new name. Updating your birth certificate is usually optional for more information you can contact NRIWAY
